Brief Description:

Cabo Girão skywalk is at the top of the second highest sea cliff in the world - 580 metres above sea level. It’s a popular lookout point with spectacular panoramic views and a glass-bottomed platform - at the bottom of which you can see the sea and some cultivated land, known as Fajãs do Cabo Girão, which helps to illustrate how high up you are.
